Oh, yeah, and isn't yellowfin tuna the new one that's having problems and shouldn't be fished right now? Doesn't Tom go on about stuff like that from time to time, know your ingredients?
According to the fish/seafood guide I just got at the Monterey Aquarium last week, Yellowfin is a "good alternative" but only if it is caught by trolling or with a pole (not via longline).
Yeah, I've thought about the rent issue on the reality tv front. A single person could just give up their apartment and put stuff in storage or whatever. It did kill me how stupid Amanda was all worked up about how she's doing this for her kid, when Jonathan was just silently fretting about his wife and kid's continued ability to make the rent. I'm assuming Amanda's kid is with her parents?
Is anyone watching The Fashion Show? I already have a favorite, Reco, who said "harem pants--just the couture word for Hammer pants. Whatever."
I am. It's very odd -- it's so clearly a copy of Runway.
I don't have a favorite yet.
I am too. I don't have a favorite either. . . .but I do love watching Isaak Mizrahi looking at the works in progress.
I don't know that Allison
should
win ANTM (she was way too nervous at the go-sees) but I want her to win after she did this

Winston!
Man, I watched MMaSM last night and I was so worried they were going to keep Amanda for one more week. god. what a freaking idiot.
I think the final probably deserves to be Jonathan, Jordan, & Sandhurst. But I think it may end up being Salome instead of Jordan.
I'm worried that Jonathan is going to be too upset about what's going on at home and he's going to screw up somehow.
I know Jordan is more stereotypically model-like but I hope it's either Salome or Moutaha along with those two men. Either of them is more interesting looking to me than Jordan.
Michelle Obama spotted at Good Stuff, the restaurant owned by Spike from Top Chef. Clearly, the Obamas love a good burger, as Barack and Joe Biden went to Ray's Hell Burger (another local burger joint) last week.
I'm annoyed at ANTM on principle again, for having the final challenge be a runway, when they do so little walking over the course of the season.
Holy shit, that was stressful! Haven't they sometimes had to find their way to the finish line? I mean, so that the first team to leave the last task didn't have a lock?
